Project360 – Making Of
Mammut is opening up new horizons on the Eiger. “Project360” is taking digital mapping into the third dimension and bringing a virtual experience of the mountain’s legendary north face to the public.
The view from the top is one of the things that makes mountaineering so fascinating. With its “Project360”, the Swiss mountain sports specialist Mammut is opening up a new view of the Eiger – through the eyes of the climber, directly from the wall.

The images were captured by six cameras installed in a specially designed backpack to reproduce a complete panoramic view.
Two professional mountaineers each carried one of these backpacks over the legendary Heckmair route on the Eiger north face.
The result: no less than an impressive 360° panoramic view of the wall, which can be viewed at project360.mammut.ch
